Flavour Physics: Old problems, recent hopes and challenges”
/ Isidori, Gino (speaker) (University of Zürich, Zürich, Switzerland)
These lectures provide an introduction to flavour physics, with special emphasis on the subject of Lepton Flavour Universality (LFU). We review in particular the present hints of LFU in B decays, discussing their reliability from a theoretical point of view, their phenomenological interest, and how they fit in the general search for physics beyond the Standard Model. Future prospects in this field, in view of higher statistics and new experiments, and the connections with high-pT physics, will also be discussed2019 - 1:12:00.

Why Open Source Firmware is Important
/ Frazelle, Jessie (speaker)
This talk will dive into some of the problems of running servers at scale, including data from surveys about physical infrastructure and firmware concerns. In this talk, we'll understand how open source firmware will solve some of these common problems. [...] 2019 - 0:36:26.

Open Source and Containers: A Proverbial Chicken and Egg?
/ Estes, Phil (speaker) (IBM)
We know that containers as a technology have had quite the renaissance of hype, excitement and usefulness in the last five years, much of it fueled by significantly large open source projects like Docker and Kubernetes, shepherded by companies who provided significant brainpower to attack containerization in both Linux and Windows, as well as hard problems in distributed computing. But has the "cloud native" renaissance also had an impact on the growing involvement and importance of open source across the industry? In this talk we'll look at how open source and cloud native technologies, like containerization, have had a symbiotic relationship, and how open source has expanded beyond simply code on GitHub to more collaborative approaches around knowledge and technology in science, academia, and across many industries.
About the speaker
Phil is a Distinguished Engineer in the Office of the CTO for the IBM Cloud Platform, guiding IBM’s architecture strategy for containers and Linux. [...] 2019 - 1:07:25.

Dealing with JSON data in Oracle: DOs and DON'Ts
/ Hammerschmidt, Beda (speaker) (Oracle)
JSON is not a new data format but it is still gaining popularity in various aspects of data management - including databases. In this talk, Beda Hammerschmidt will give an overview about JSON, it's benefits, common use cases, dos and dont's and how JSON data can be queried, indexed, generated, and processed with the Oracle Database.
